00:10:32,090 --> 00:10:35,003
based on opponent quality
170
00:10:35,135 --> 00:10:37,046
He had fought before that.
171
00:10:37,178 --> 00:10:40,716
I thought he had a chance, but now,
you're talking about Joe Frazier now.
172
00:10:56,656 --> 00:10:59,774
FOREMAN: I want people people in all
part of the world to see this fight.
173

I don't think you will be interested
come to see two friends shake hands.
174
00:11:04,289 --> 00:11:06,951
Joe Frazier and me
will declare war on that day

know it, "Hey, I'm not backing up."
178

Generally, when a man gets
a little nervous he'll drop his head
179

because he will see my knees tremble.
180

I'm actually scared.

The best weapon, the left hook.
Foreman is vulnerable to hooks.

I was assigned to fight in Zaire
286
00:17:52,113 --> 00:17:57,108
and the network wanted me
to be with George and argue.

How are you doing?

you will go to the same airport

are patting your shoulder,
356
00:21:49,141 --> 00:21:54,636
"Oh, you will get a second chance.
You will get another chance. "
357
00:21:54,772 --> 00:21:58,356
From pride to mercy.
Destruction as I have never felt.

to fight that person again

I do not do 100% of what I can do.

This time, this man, you know,
369

got me to the point where I only
disliked its prevalence in boxing.

He said, "I've tried to find you.

one of the biggest mistakes he made

was when he decided
to do five people.
400

to do three rounds with each man.

enter, three rounds each.

in a bad and bad dressing room
507
00:30:23,405 --> 00:30:25,066
it doesn't even have AC.
508
00:30:25,198 --> 00:30:28,782
I have all of these houses
and I try to make a deal.
509
00:30:29,911 --> 00:30:31,493
I say, "I am still George Foreman . "
510
00:30:31,621 --> 00:30:34,079
" I can pack and I can give money
for charity and cancer. "
511
00:30:34,207 --> 00:30:38,496
And I hear a voice inside me saying,
" I don't want your money. I want you. "
512
00:30:38,628 --> 00:30:42,792
I remember tears coming.
I was like, "Oh, dead?"
513
00:30:49,765 --> 00:30:52,382
My legs gave up and I said,
"Hey, all of you, I fix it."
514
00:30:52,517 --> 00:30:55,054
Before I can say another word,
I am dead.
515
00:30:55,187 --> 00:30:58,430
Above my head, under my feet,
there is nothing around me.
516
00:30:58,565 --> 00:31:03,310
Only the horrible smell of old death
and I was in this landfill.
517
00:31:03,445 --> 00:31:05,652
TRAMPLER:
I have people on the bottom card that day
518
00:31:05,781 --> 00:31:09,445
and I go to the locker room and
I hear shouts and commotion
519
00:31:09,576 --> 00:31:12,739
and that is a sight that you will never forget.
520
00:31:12,871 --> 00:31:14,157
That's just. ..
521
00:31:14,289 --> 00:31:19,329
I mean, I really ran out of room
because I was very worried about George.
522
00:31:19,461 --> 00:31:22,499
I started shouting,
"Jesus Christ lives in me. "
523
00:31:22,631 --> 00:31:26,295
Boys, they put tomahawk
and full nelson on me trying to hold me
524
00:31:26,426 --> 00:31:28,258
because I took off my clothes.
525
00:31:28,387 --> 00:31:29,923
I said, "I must tell world! "
526
00:31:30,055 --> 00:31:32,592
I think they said,
" Wear clothes, George. "
527
00:31:32,724 --> 00:31:35,341
I followed eight men to get it
into the shower and started shouting,
528
00:31:35,477 --> 00:31:37,935
"Hallelujah, I am clean!
Hallelujah, I am born again!"
529
00:31:38,063 --> 00:31:40,896
They finally tied me up,
holding me on the table
530
00:31:41,024 --> 00:31:42,560
and I started reading the Bible.
531
00:31:42,692 --> 00:31:47,277
I kissed everyone in the room, told them
I love them.
I can't stop.
532
00:31:48,949 --> 00:31:50,906
COOPER: I'm outside the locker room. P>
533
00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:54,026
I don't know
what happened in the room,
534
00:31:54,162 --> 00:31:57,621
but he experienced something
for at least an hour,
535
00:31:57,749 --> 00:32:00,832
in the dressing room with all
screams and screams that happened.
536
00:32:00,961 --> 00:32:02,577
I said, "Wait! Don't let Jesus go!"
537
00:32:02,712 --> 00:32:04,373
Because I know he will go .
538
00:32:04,506 --> 00:32:08,295
Finally, I said, "Now go to my father
who is in heaven." Boom!
539
00:32:08,427 --> 00:32:11,761
And I was left in this locker room
same embarrassed.
540
00:32:12,931 --> 00:32:16,469
I said, "You witnessed miracles
and you will not believe."
541
00:32:16,601 --> 00:32:20,720
That happened to me and for ten years
I didn't even clench hands.
542
00:32:20,856 --> 00:32:22,563
I am not shadowbox, I am not a box.
543
00:32:22,691 --> 00:32:24,978
I leave it and become an evangelist
544
00:32:25,110 --> 00:32:27,693
with the Church
Lord Jesus Christ.

Everyone.
550
00:32:51,094 --> 00:32:52,550
And I just can't fight anymore.
551
00:32:52,679 --> 00:32:54,465
I'll go to the gym first
552
00:32:54,598 --> 00:32:58,808
and the bag is Muhammad Ali
and Joe Frazier, Ken Norton.
553
00:32:58,935 --> 00:33:01,973
I go in there just a cloth,
a piece of skin,
554
00:33:02,105 --> 00:33:04,517
and it's no longer anyone
and I can't do that.
555
00:33:04,649 --> 00:33:06,310
I just stopped boxing.
556
00:33:06,443 --> 00:33:09,652
Even my mother thinks I'm crazy.
557
00:33:09,779 --> 00:33:11,395
He said, "Our family said
558
00:33:11,531 --> 00:33:13,989
we need to put George
in the rest house, you know." P>
559
00:33:17,204 --> 00:33:18,660
COOPER: He cut his hairstyle. P>
560
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,907
He changed his clothes. P>
561
00:33:23,835 --> 00:33:26,497
And then this happened.
He started distributing things. P>
562
00:33:27,672 --> 00:33:33,793
He distributed cars,
big screen TV, furniture, everything .
563
00:33:33,929 --> 00:33:36,170
And for ten years
he didn't watch television.
564
00:33:38,808 --> 00:33:41,516
FOREMAN JR: He used
to tell us about the car he had
565
00:33:41,645 --> 00:33:45,354
and give know us about those houses
she is in Beverly Hills
566
00:33:45,482 --> 00:33:48,224
and River Oaks in Houston,
567
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:52,319
but I've never seen them and I think
she tells about fairy tale.
568
00:33:53,573 --> 00:33:57,032
COOPER: He changed from 220 or whatever,
230 at that time,
569
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,572
to 300 pounds.
570
00:33:59,704 --> 00:34:01,445
And people laugh at it
571
00:34:02,541 --> 00:34:06,705
and criticize it,
call him all kinds of names.
572
00:34:10,507 --> 00:34:12,544
BROWN: Well, I go to his house
573
00:34:12,717 --> 00:34:16,130
and there are
some changes extraordinary in his life.
574
00:34:16,263 --> 00:34:21,008
That night
that I was knocked out in Africa.
575
00:34:21,142 --> 00:34:24,260
And that reminds me
that God pity me.
576
00:34:24,396 --> 00:34:27,559
BROWN: One of the wonderful things
that he did was he acknowledged
577
00:34:27,732 --> 00:34:31,350
Muhammad Ali's abilities
and acknowledged the loss
578
00:34:31,486 --> 00:34:35,024
and put a temple in his house
579
00:34:35,156 --> 00:34:37,739
and give Ali
all credit in the world.
580
00:34:37,867 --> 00:34:40,404
This is the proof
that I am fighting with him.
581
00:34:40,537 --> 00:34:43,370
He hits me right on eyes.
(LAUGH)
582
00:34:43,498 --> 00:34:47,833
BROWN: I don't have an athlete
who can accept defeat
583
00:34:47,961 --> 00:34:52,080
and recognize his strength
from other men like him do.
584
00:34:52,215 --> 00:34:54,832
In the world, I really hate it.
585
00:34:54,968 --> 00:34:57,926
And today, he is like one of my children,
honest with you.
586
00:34:58,054 --> 00:35:00,466
I talked to him all the time.
I love him now. P>
587
00:35:02,517 --> 00:35:04,975
I found me.
Really found myself. P>
588
00:35:05,103 --> 00:35:09,062
And I was ordained an evangelist. > in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.
589
00:35:10,442 --> 00:35:13,059
And ever since,
I am a preacher.
590
00:35:14,029 --> 00:35:16,862
To be honest with you,
I don't think it's really God.
591
00:35:16,990 --> 00:35:19,903
Everyone I look interested
for that is a poor person,
592
00:35:20,035 --> 00:35:21,275
a broken hearted person.
593
00:35:21,411 --> 00:35:24,699
You see someone's husband leaving them,
then they have a Bible or someone else
594
00:35:24,831 --> 00:35:28,119
came out of prison after years,
he had a Bible.
595
00:35:28,251 --> 00:35:30,663
I said, "That's not me."
Or damage people.
596
00:35:30,795 --> 00:35:32,251
I don't believe in religion.
597
00:35:32,380 --> 00:35:35,714
My mother said, "Oh, God," but I thought
that because she went bankrupt all the time.
598
00:35:36,843 --> 00:35:40,586
In my life, I haven't sold
to anything, boxing or anything,
599
00:35:40,722 --> 00:35:42,463
but after I found my religion,
600
00:35:42,599 --> 00:35:47,435
I was sold and I started talking
and it's about keeping me keep calm.
601
00:35:47,562 --> 00:35:48,927
(Little laugh)
602
00:35:49,064 --> 00:35:51,726
Jesus!
Jesus!
603
00:35:51,858 --> 00:35:55,567
I put boxing and everything
what to do with boxing,
604
00:35:55,695 --> 00:35:58,653
so that people
can learn about Jesus Christ.
605
00:35:58,782 --> 00:36:01,444
TRAMPLER: One day I
with some friends and they said,
606
00:36:01,576 --> 00:36:04,034
"There is George Foreman < br /> preach in a corner. "
607
00:36:04,162 --> 00:36:06,199
And I-I didn't go up and say anything.
608
00:36:06,331 --> 00:36:12,077
I was actually rather uncomfortable
that he was in that position.
609
00:36:12,212 --> 00:36:13,794
God is a wake-up artist.
610
00:36:14,881 --> 00:36:17,543
When God says you have to move,
you have to move!
611
00:36:19,260 --> 00:36:22,218
BROWN: I don't really like
a man who wants to be baptized.
612
00:36:22,347 --> 00:36:24,304
There is something like that.
613
00:36:24,432 --> 00:36:30,223
But I really respect him,
I decided I would let him baptize me.
614
00:36:30,355 --> 00:36:32,562
And I'm very happy that I did that...
615
00:36:33,775 --> 00:36:39,817
because he proved to be everything
that a man must after that.
616
00:36:41,199 --> 00:36:44,908
LAMPLEY: There is a moment somewhere in
there when George has some kind of enlightenment
617
00:36:45,036 --> 00:36:49,121
and say to himself,
"I'm not a cruel SOB."
618
00:36:49,249 --> 00:36:50,660
"It's not me."
619
00:36:50,792 --> 00:36:54,035
Now I can't understand
how others will raise their fists
620
00:36:54,170 --> 00:36:56,832
and wear gloves and try
and knock others unknowingly.
621
00:36:56,965 --> 00:36:59,753
I can't see it.
I don't understand how I am do it.
622
00:36:59,884 --> 00:37:01,295
I can't do it anymore.

00:37:09,436 --> 00:37:13,395
"Let your light shine before men
626
00:37:13,523 --> 00:37:15,434
that they can see your good deeds

This is the last ring I worked on.

It was constructive for me, so to speak.
635

And hopefully that will be the home of
from other George Foreman.

There are some kids who are their parents
want me to help them with boxing

from the street, the mothers do it. P>

just hangout with them.

what people think.

He said, "I will help
George Foreman and people like him."

FOREMAN JR: When he opened
George Foreman's Youth Center,

he was happy to do it every day. P>
649
00:38:41,528 --> 00:38:44,065
I mean, really, I will enter,
jump to the car with him

and he is motivated to go
to the Youth Center and work with children.

Doing good evangelistic work
is one thing,

but I want to make sure I won't do it
Lost my reach to young people,
653
00:38:53,832 --> 00:38:56,790
and I have to find a happy medium
where I can meet children

00:38:56,918 --> 00:38:58,784

they start caring for their souls.
660

looked at me behind the pulpit.

Surely we can help George more. "

That's what makes him
really start thinking
671
00:39:53,141 --> 00:39:57,806
about how he can stay open < br /> and make the future,
672
00:39:57,937 --> 00:40:01,020
not only for children
at the Youth Center, but his family.
673
00:40:06,070 --> 00:40:08,152
MANDOR:
And I remember saying in there,
674
00:40:08,281 --> 00:40:11,023
"I will never ask anyone for money again."
675
00:40:11,159 --> 00:40:14,368
"I will be a heavyweight champion.
That's how I get my money."
676
00:40:17,332 --> 00:40:20,290
I went to my wife
and told her, "Look..."
677
00:40:21,336 --> 00:40:25,125
"I'm just... I'm running out of money.
I have to go back to boxing."
678
00:40:25,256 --> 00:40:27,964
He begged, "Don't do that.
They will kill you, George."
679
00:40:28,092 --> 00:40:29,457
"You're not that man anymore."
680
00:40:31,846 --> 00:40:34,508
And I even bring my children around
and tell them.
681
00:40:35,850 --> 00:40:38,433
Of course when your father said,
"I will go back to boxing
682
00:40:38,561 --> 00:40:40,973
and become a heavyweight champion
in the world, "
683
00:40:41,105 --> 00:40:43,472
You say," Okay, Dad. "
684
00:40:43,608 --> 00:40:49,103
But I've never seen him skip a rope,
never saw him wearing boxing pants,
685
00:40:49,238 --> 00:40:53,482
I never saw him hit a bag,
never saw him do such a thing.

MANDOR:
The first thing I did was to scale up. p >

315 pounds.
688
00:41:00,041 --> 00:41:03,579
I said, "Oh no," so I thought,
"I need a better balance."
(LAUGH)
689
00:41:06,422 --> 00:41:08,129
FOREMAN JR " the start of training
690
00:41:08,257 --> 00:41:11,170
before he starts
puts a lot of miles jogging,
691
00:41:11,302 --> 00:41:15,671
he will run and I will see him
walk in the backyard,
692
00:41:15,807 --> 00:41:20,768
walk on the track,
and use cents to calculate the rotation.
693
00:41:23,189 --> 00:41:26,227
FOREMAN: Then I make an announcement
to my friends, I will come back.
694
00:41:26,359 --> 00:41:27,565
The newspaper held him back
695
00:41:27,694 --> 00:41:31,358
and they started talking about me
as bad as they could. P>
696
00:41:31,489 --> 00:41:33,196
What did you make of George Foreman? P>
697
00:41:33,324 --> 00:41:36,988
This is Live ads
for why boxing must be removed.
698
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,578
People don't come back again
after ten years
699
00:41:39,706 --> 00:41:42,744
and appear
at the highest level of craft them.
700
00:41:42,875 --> 00:41:46,334
He has changed from spectacular
to a spectacle.
701
00:41:50,508 --> 00:41:54,217
COOPER: They think it's a joke.
They think he's just a big joke.
702
00:41:54,345 --> 00:41:58,384
And he will failed
and collapsed on his face.
703
00:41:59,642 --> 00:42:03,135
Tomorrow night the veteran boxer
George Foreman will wear gloves
704
00:42:03,271 --> 00:42:07,230
and go back to the ring
after almost a decade in retirement.
705
00:42:07,358 --> 00:42:09,816
Some skeptics
think that this is just ridiculous.
706
00:42:09,944 --> 00:42:11,776
The foreman is too old.
707
00:42:14,490 --> 00:42:16,731
FOREMAN JR:
When he was in Sacramento, California
708
00:42:16,868 --> 00:42:22,113
and he fought with a gentleman
named Steve Zouski, I believe,
709
00:42:22,248 --> 00:42:25,741
and he was in the ring
and he took off his clothes.
710
00:42:25,877 --> 00:42:28,869
I don't remember seeing my father
with his clothes before,
711
00:42:29,005 --> 00:42:31,963
so he took off his shirt
and that's a big problem.
712
00:42:32,091 --> 00:42:33,377
Dan dia melempar pukulan.
713
00:42:33,509 --> 00:42:37,844

is now 11 to 11 in his comeback offer.
729
00:43:24,519 --> 00:43:27,762
REPORTER: Smart money boxing said
The return of George Foreman is deception,
730
00:43:27,939 --> 00:43:31,933
who flattened one palooka afterwards
the other was a little more than flim.
731
00:43:34,237 --> 00:43:35,898
That's what we call
in boxing, dead people.
732
00:43:36,030 --> 00:43:39,113
"Stiffs" is another word.
"Tomato cans" is another word.
733
00:43:39,242 --> 00:43:42,860
What they mean is that they are
not opponents who will fight. P>

They are the opponents
who are there to get rid of. P>

FOREMAN: I keep boxing.
City to town.

Every reporter will shoot me.
"This George..."
737
00:43:52,505 --> 00:43:55,748
And they come out
and give me a piece long too.
738
00:43:55,883 --> 00:43:58,500
Dan mereka keluar
dan beri aku potongan panjang juga.
739
00:43:58,636 --> 00:43:59,876
"He will never do it."
740
00:44:00,012 --> 00:44:02,595
And they just took the paper
criticizing me.
741
00:44:03,891 --> 00:44:07,225
At the same time,
they made me all famous again.
742
00:44:16,237 --> 00:44:19,855
ARUM: I've heard it
that he has several battles...
743
00:44:21,033 --> 00:44:24,196
and suddenly
I got a call from him
744
00:44:24,328 --> 00:44:26,786
and he wants me to promote it,
745
00:44:27,832 --> 00:44:30,745
but I remember
George Foreman who was old.
746
00:44:30,877 --> 00:44:33,665
And I told him that I was not interested
747
00:44:33,796 --> 00:44:37,130
bow yourself
to such a person.
748
00:44:38,509 --> 00:44:43,254
He said, "Look, I boarded a plane
and I came to see you."
749
00:44:44,348 --> 00:44:47,716
And he sit
and start talking to me.
750
00:44:48,603 --> 00:44:51,095
I sort of scratched my head and I said,
751
00:44:51,230 --> 00:44:55,770
"This is the best cheater
I have ever, ever met,"
752
00:44:55,902 --> 00:45:02,569
because he is respectful,
he is good, he is smart.
753
00:45:02,742 --> 00:45:06,280
And I said, you know,
"He, he put me on,"
754
00:45:06,412 --> 00:45:08,904
which is the most amazing thing
755
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,247
because the new George Foreman
756
00:45:11,375 --> 00:45:13,742
turns out to be
the original George Foreman.
757
00:45:15,087 --> 00:45:20,253
Without further ado, Chairman
Supreme Leadership Council, Bob Arum.

That fight, I'm nervous.
764
00:45:41,489 --> 00:45:43,571
Gerry Cooney is a big man
765
00:45:43,699 --> 00:45:45,315
and gets a big hit.
766
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:51,246
EVANDER HOLYHELD: Now finally he succeeds
someone whose arms are longer than his hands.
767
00:45:51,374 --> 00:45:54,412
He is not the top person anymore.
768
00:45:54,543 --> 00:45:59,379

LAMPLEY: That's not just a knockout.
It's an easy knockout.

April 19 directly from Trump Plaza, TVKO. P>
813

ARUM: From then on
was like a real wild trip
814
00:48:23,442 --> 00:48:28,562
because, the press is in the case,
815
00:48:28,697 --> 00:48:32,361
A, because
he is relatively old for a warrior,
816
00:48:32,493 --> 00:48:34,325
You know, never fought in 10 years,
817
00:48:34,453 --> 00:48:36,945
and, B, he was a bit heavy.

George Foreman's heavyweight challenger
819
00:48:39,208 --> 00:48:41,916
who was born with a fork in his hand
and a smile on his face...
820
00:48:42,044 --> 00:48:45,253
One of the fighters took
the description "heavyweight"
821
00:48:45,381 --> 00:48:46,462
very serious.

That is not a fact, what are you saying.
824
00:48:51,387 --> 00:48:54,846
The fact is I can become a heavyweight
champion if I want at any age.
825
00:48:54,974 --> 00:48:58,057
We talk about age matters
826
00:48:58,185 --> 00:49:01,678
and that's when he came up with that idea
827
00:49:01,814 --> 00:49:05,648
that age is just a number
and that doesn't mean anything.
828
00:49:05,776 --> 00:49:10,361
When I drop it, there will be
not if, and and but about it.

play this for everything it's worth."
834
00:49:27,548 --> 00:49:32,008
So at the press conference
I have a waiter at the hotel
835
00:49:32,219 --> 00:49:34,961
with the hamburger plates in
836
00:49:35,097 --> 00:49:37,464
and the image is scattered everywhere.
837
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:42,640
The fight will never occur
what happens
838
00:49:42,771 --> 00:49:44,808
if not for George.
839
00:49:44,940 --> 00:49:48,899

because I learned to sell.

00:50:06,086 --> 00:50:08,794
MANDOR:
I will watch television, for a moment
847
00:50:08,923 --> 00:50:12,086
and I look at the camera and said,
"Yes, they say I'm 40 years old."
848
00:50:12,218 --> 00:50:15,301
"I can become a heavyweight
world champion." Boom!
849
00:50:15,429 --> 00:50:20,048
Finally, they start giving me
ten seconds, 20 seconds, then 30 seconds.
850
00:50:20,184 --> 00:50:22,801
HOLYHELD: People love him!
851
00:50:22,937 --> 00:50:25,975
He made all his fame work.
852
00:50:26,106 --> 00:50:30,646
And, you know, at that time
the biggest payday they had ever had,
853
00:50:30,778 --> 00:50:33,236
in boxing, because of George.
854
00:50:33,364 --> 00:50:38,609
There are 15 million cable houses

who can buy battles
in Pay-Per-Display
856
00:50:42,665 --> 00:50:46,533
and we sell 1,500,000 homes.

10%, a little over 10%, which
nothing has been done before or after.
858
00:50:52,466 --> 00:50:55,504
I will be next heavyweight
world champion.
This is my destiny.
859
00:50:55,636 --> 00:50:57,172
Nothing can stop me.
860
00:50:57,304 --> 00:50:59,386
I am not the best fighter in the world,
861
00:50:59,515 --> 00:51:02,758
but I have something that
every need for combat, third punch.
862
00:51:02,893 --> 00:51:04,884
If I throw
and miss you with my left hand, boom,

00:51:05,020 --> 00:51:08,138

then I'll help you.

I have to keep saying that to myself
876

because I have done so much
promotion work for boxing matches this.
877

competitive against Evander Holyfield.

Holyfield is not so firm
suddenly.
902
00:53:20,489 --> 00:53:23,106
and Evander
are suddenly far more careful.
903

you realize this is a serious battle.

00:58:39,099 --> 00:58:41,431
but I think
I have watched a lot of boxing.
1002
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:44,894
He and George became
some kind of frick and frack, you know,
1003
00:58:45,022 --> 00:58:46,683
continues to argue with each other. P>
1004
00:58:46,815 --> 00:58:49,898
- You can't be serious.
- (LAUGHING )
1005
00:58:50,027 --> 00:58:51,609
LAMPLEY: But we became popular.
1006
00:58:51,737 --> 00:58:56,402
We became popular as a threesome
partly because of the dispute,
1007
00:58:56,533 --> 00:59:00,367
partly because of George
so charming, so charming.
1008
00:59:01,455 --> 00:59:04,288
- I'm George Junior.
- I'm George Foreman III.
1009
00:59:04,458 --> 00:59:06,074
I'm George Foreman IV.
1010
00:59:06,209 --> 00:59:09,247
MERCHANT: The fact is
that he names all children his son
1011
00:59:09,379 --> 00:59:12,917
as George or Georgettes or Georginas
1012
00:59:13,050 --> 00:59:17,635
and also
some kind of original charming...
1013
00:59:19,389 --> 00:59:21,130
part of the narrative.
1014
00:59:21,266 --> 00:59:23,052
> Who ever heard of it
from something like that? P>
1015
00:59:23,185 --> 00:59:26,143
U & apos; WE ARE ALL MADE FROM STARS

00:59:30,942 --> 00:59:35,482
FOREMAN JR : During that time
there was an ABC event called "George". P>
1017
00:59:35,614 --> 00:59:38,197
Hi father.
Let's be far away. P>
1018
00:59:38,325 --> 00:59:40,783
The second round will never be seen
1019
00:59:40,911 --> 00:59:43,949
1020
00:59:45,499 --> 00:59:47,957
because I float like a butterfly
and sting like a bee.
1021
00:59:48,085 --> 00:59:50,042
Boxing becomes a bit secondary.
1022
00:59:50,170 --> 00:59:52,036
George, we have
to discuss little
1023
00:59:52,172 --> 00:59:53,207
Ah, people always...
1024
00:59:53,340 --> 00:59:56,207
FOREMAN JR: That's a good thing
out of the ring, but in the ring
1025
00:59:56,343 --> 00:59:58,004
that took him away from his destination.
1026
00:59:58,136 --> 01:00:01,174
George, you haven't been
to the gym in a few weeks.
Look at you.
1027
01:00:01,306 --> 01:00:02,387
You're 40 years old.
1028
01:00:02,516 --> 01:00:05,349
Ah, don't start a business the bad one.
1029
01:00:06,728 --> 01:00:08,844
(CROWD CHEERS)
1030
01:00:09,981 --> 01:00:13,349
TRAMPLER: After losing to Holyfield,
George will not give up.
1031
01:00:14,861 --> 01:00:17,353
And we are able

COMMENT: And we start the first round.
This is scheduled for 12.
1033
01:00:21,910 --> 01:00:24,151
Very few think it will last that long.
1034
01:00:24,287 --> 01:00:27,575
TRAMPLER: To be honest I think George
will destroy it.
1035
01:00:27,707 --> 01:00:29,744
COMMENT OR:
Foreman lands a good punch.
1036
01:00:31,086 --> 01:00:32,997
Morrison, wild, miss both.
1037
01:00:33,130 --> 01:00:38,216
TRAMPLER: But somehow, Morrison appeared
with the best game plan ever.
1038
01:00:38,343 --> 01:00:39,959
He flapped.
He has moved.
1039
01:00:43,390 --> 01:00:46,599
COMMENTS : I tell you,
Morrison throws a big bag of wheat. P>
1040
01:00:48,478 --> 01:00:51,641
And George,
I don't think he prepared properly. P>
1041
01:00:51,773 --> 01:00:54,606
Uh, George ran second.
1042
01:00:54,734 --> 01:00:56,190
He does TV shows.
1043
01:00:56,319 --> 01:00:58,481
He has...
He focuses on other things.
1044
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:03,278
FOREMAN JR: Before Tommy Morrison > fight he hit the bag
1045
01:01:03,410 --> 01:01:05,321
at the location "George,"
on the TV show, huh?
1046
01:01:07,122 --> 01:01:10,615
It's very difficult
to become the biggest boxer
1047
01:01:10,750 --> 01:01:13,082
and have a TV show at the same time!
1048
01:01:13,211 --> 01:01:16,499
My fight will not be against Morrison,
it will fight the rocking chair.
1049
01:01:16,631 --> 01:01:18,292
This is where I want to get out of boxing.
1050
01:01:18,425 --> 01:01:21,008
Maybe no one will see me
in the boxing ring again.
1051
01:01:22,179 --> 01:01:26,844
COMMENT ATOR: This could be the last one
2:08 George Foreman's boxing career.
1052
01:01:26,975 --> 01:01:29,717
At the end of the fight,
Tommy Morrison raises his hand
1053
01:01:29,853 --> 01:01:31,014
and he wins the fight.
1054
01:01:32,731 --> 01:01:37,100
COMMENT: George Foreman
the legendary comeback is over.
1055
01:02:01,843 --> 01:02:03,550
FOREMAN JR: After he lost to Morrison,
1056
01:02:03,678 --> 01:02:06,010
really he started
spending time on the farm.
1057
01:02:08,016 --> 01:02:10,098
And we rode a horse,
1058
01:02:10,227 --> 01:02:13,390
um, really working on the farm,
working hard.
1059
01:02:17,776 --> 01:02:20,814
Go fast to, uh, 1994
1060
01:02:20,946 --> 01:02:23,438
and when Michael Moorer
won the heavyweight champion.
1061
01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:26,361
(BELL muss)
1062
01:02:26,493 --> 01:02:30,987
ANNOUNCER: And the new
world heavyweight champion...
1063
01:02:31,122 --> 01:02:33,955
LAMPLEY: Michael Moorer
is the champion other heavy classes.
1064
01:02:34,125 --> 01:02:38,289
What does he want to do?
He wants to make money!
1065
01:02:38,421 --> 01:02:42,130
So, he did the same thing
that Holyfield did.
1066
01:02:42,259 --> 01:02:43,545
Let's go straight to George.
1067
01:02:43,677 --> 01:02:46,089
That's how
gets the biggest audience.
1068
01:02:46,221 --> 01:02:48,883
And I'm sure that Moorer, at the age of 26,
1069
01:02:49,015 --> 01:02:52,224
is invincible,
just defeated Evander Holyfield,
1070
01:02:52,352 --> 01:02:54,639
didn't really believe in his heart
1071
01:02:54,771 --> 01:02:58,014
that there would be that much
a challenge against George Foreman.
1072
01:03:05,490 --> 01:03:08,323
TRAMPLER:
When George agrees to fight Moorer,
1073
01:03:08,493 --> 01:03:10,029
he has no choice anymore.
1074
01:03:10,161 --> 01:03:13,529
It defeats this person and wins it
or, or finishes.
1075
01:03:17,460 --> 01:03:18,825
He's getting older.
1076
01:03:18,962 --> 01:03:22,626
Uh, he doesn't have
much credibility left
1077
01:03:22,757 --> 01:03:25,840
and people say, "George,
maybe it's not meant. "
1078
01:03:25,969 --> 01:03:27,255
"Maybe it won't happen."
1079
01:03:31,057 --> 01:03:34,049
FOREMAN JR: Then you hear
that he will fight Michael Moorer.
1080
01:03:34,185 --> 01:03:37,849
Now, Michael Moorer,
I am a boxing fan...
1081
01:03:39,524 --> 01:03:42,357
I remember him as a middle class,
1082
01:03:42,485 --> 01:03:44,977
light heavyweight,
and now heavyweight.
1083
01:03:45,113 --> 01:03:47,150
I am watched Holyfield fight.
1084
01:03:47,282 --> 01:03:52,197
I watched him do, like, amazing things
as... as a competitor came.
1085
01:03:52,329 --> 01:03:57,574
So, I don't like the idea of him < br /> against Michael Moorer.
1086
01:03:57,709 --> 01:03:58,665
I don't like that.
1087
01:04:02,839 --> 01:04:05,206
LAMPLEY:
I worked with George at that time
1088
01:04:05,342 --> 01:04:08,460
and for months the month before the fight
I will tell him,
1089
01:04:08,595 --> 01:04:11,428
"George, how are you doing?
will even find Moorer?"
1090
01:04:11,556 --> 01:04:15,174
"Holyfield can't find it
and Holyfield is much more mobile
1091
01:04:15,310 --> 01:04:18,302
and more movers in the ring
than you.
1092
01:04:18,438 --> 01:04:23,729
" And, you know, this person is a left-handed,
does not move in the conventional way. "
1093
01:04:23,860 --> 01:04:27,319
" Uh, he is 26 years old.
He is faster than you. "
1094
01:04:28,490 --> 01:04:32,358
I just don't understand
exactly what the plan is.
1095
01:04:35,205 --> 01:04:38,448
And George said to me," You watch. "
1096
01:04:38,583 --> 01:04:40,665
" Too late in the fight some point,
1097
01:04:40,794 --> 01:04:43,081
he will stand before me
and allow me to drop it. "
1098
01:04:46,424 --> 01:04:47,789
I know the secret George has
1099
01:04:47,926 --> 01:04:50,088
in terms of what he does
to do such a punch,
1100
01:04:50,220 --> 01:04:51,881
how to get you out with one hit .
1101
01:04:54,182 --> 01:04:58,517
This is an exercise
that you can... do it with an ax.
1102
01:05:00,939 --> 01:05:03,647
If you see his arm at that time,
you see how big they are.
1103
01:05:03,775 --> 01:05:06,187
They are carved like that
because of the practice
1104
01:05:06,319 --> 01:05:09,687
and because he took the ax that and
just kind of cut it to the tree.

and it's not like that
I want other people to be there.

1328
01:18:29,872 --> 01:18:33,456
because he is smarter,
he is calmer, he is more patient.
1329
01:18:33,584 --> 01:18:34,949
He not excited.
1330
01:18:35,085 --> 01:18:37,417
(Crowd CHEERS, SHOUTS)
1331
01:18:37,546 --> 01:18:41,039
LAMPLEY: He's very opposite
from, first person.
1332
01:18:41,175 --> 01:18:43,837
COMMENTS OR:
Right hand landed there.
And others. P>
1333
01:18:43,969 --> 01:18:45,801
LAMPLEY: Smarter.
Better. P>
1334
01:18:45,930 --> 01:18:48,922
Better round.
Technical skills the bigger one.
1335
01:18:49,058 --> 01:18:52,301
Number two George beats
number one George, I'm pretty sure.
1336
01:18:54,855 --> 01:18:57,722
DUNDEE: If the old George Foreman
has fought in Zaire,
1337
01:18:57,858 --> 01:19:00,771
he will not do it
affected by Zaire.
1338
01:19:00,903 --> 01:19:03,770
If he is the person
that he when he returns,
1339
01:19:03,906 --> 01:19:06,022
it will be
maybe a different ball game .
1340
01:19:08,661 --> 01:19:13,576
ARUM: I like my promotion career
has been associated with it
1341
01:19:13,707 --> 01:19:15,994
and to see what happens,
1342
01:19:16,126 --> 01:19:20,336
both as athletes,
but more important as a person.
1343
01:19:22,675 --> 01:19:26,384
Well, he became this beloved figure.
1344
01:19:26,512 --> 01:19:29,880
Um, we can change.
1345
01:19:30,015 --> 01:19:35,852
This is a country where people /> come to change themselves.
1346
01:19:37,523 --> 01:19:39,184
HOLYHELD: He, he made the transition.
1347
01:19:40,818 --> 01:19:43,310
And that's one of the things
that many people think,
1348
01:19:43,445 --> 01:19:46,733
be that villain, it's easier.
1349
01:19:46,865 --> 01:19:48,731
But my mom always told me,
1350
01:19:48,867 --> 01:19:53,407
"Ah, alright, you're that bad person
and you're really not that bad person,"
1351
01:19:53,539 --> 01:19:56,702
they will hold you there longer
than you want. "
1352
01:19:56,834 --> 01:19:59,872
All right?
So my mom..." Never pretend
to be something you don't. "
1353
01:20:02,673 --> 01:20:06,541
FOREMAN". I won that night
and celebrated the best I could,
1354
01:20:06,677 --> 01:20:09,009
but I thought about Michael Moorer
1355
01:20:09,138 --> 01:20:12,972
and the night I lost the championship
surprisingly to Muhammad Ali .
1356
01:20:14,101 --> 01:20:15,967
And I sat in my dressing room.
1357
01:20:16,103 --> 01:20:18,140
Joe Frazier came to the room
1358
01:20:18,272 --> 01:20:20,934
and sat with me and comforted me.
1359
01:20:23,027 --> 01:20:27,442
Of all people in the world
Joe Frazier came and comforted me.
1360
01:20:27,573 --> 01:20:31,407
And I hope Michael Moorer can
find that person in his room that night.
1361
01:20:33,078 --> 01:20:36,070
TRAMPLER:
You know, for me, George Foreman
1362
01:20:36,206 --> 01:20:39,665
is America's last big heavyweight.
Nothing has been better since then
1363
01:20:39,793 --> 01:20:43,081
and there is
very little better before him.
1364
01:20:45,090 --> 01:20:48,879
I think it's one of the biggest
individual achievements in sports
1365
01:20:49,011 --> 01:20:51,799
and I'm not sure
for what you will compare it.
1366
01:20:51,930 --> 01:20:54,297
This man wins what we usually call
1367
01:20:54,433 --> 01:20:58,097
the biggest individual prize
in global sports.
1368
01:20:58,228 --> 01:21:00,720
Twice, 21 separate year,
1369
01:21:00,856 --> 01:21:02,642
as two different fighters
1370
01:21:02,775 --> 01:21:06,894
and even more importantly,
as two different humans.
1371
01:21:07,029 --> 01:21:10,067
You know that after defeating Moorer
that you will eventually be expelled
1372
01:21:10,199 --> 01:21:13,157
a bitter memory of losing you
to Muhammad Ali. P>
1373
01:21:13,285 --> 01:21:15,697
You have heard from Muhammad
since your victory, right?
1374
01:21:15,829 --> 01:21:17,319
He sent me a telegram and signed it.
1375
01:21:18,665 --> 01:21:22,579
You know, congratulations.
You show
that you have courage and courage.
1376
01:21:23,796 --> 01:21:25,378
When that man tells you that you have the guts,
1377
01:21:25,506 --> 01:21:27,873
You feel like,
"Hey, I've arrived there now."
1378
01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:45,101
TRADERS:
George, nothing symbolizes you
1379
01:21:45,234 --> 01:21:47,692
As much as you break with boxing.
1380
01:21:47,820 --> 01:21:48,981
Thank you very much.
1381
01:21:49,113 --> 01:21:52,196
I don't want to do it
with anyone better than Larry Merchant.
1382
01:21:52,324 --> 01:21:54,190
God bless you.
1383
01:21:54,326 --> 01:21:58,991
And remember George Foreman
Lean means the Fat Drilling Machine.
1384
01:21:59,123 --> 01:22:01,740
